It is the honest-to-goodness opening of the academic year, complete with freshmen and transfer students new to this campus. It is to you new students, entering this University for the first time, that the Daily Kansan extends a welcoming hand, and the dedication of today's issue. Few students attend our school who do not learn to respect and love the University and its traditions and spirit. But this feeling of regard is not all that we expect from you freshmen. We know, and you will find, that you will not have gained the fullest advantage this institution can offer unless you leave a part of yourself with the University when you depart. That means contributing your best in leadership, scholarship, and abilities of all kinds to whatever organizations you belong to, to your classes, and to the University as a whole. Only a small percentage of society has the privilege of higher education. That fact makes it your duty, as members of this select group, to know that leadership to your chosen University. That is why we hope you have come here today with a serious purpose in mind, that you realize your duty to get the best in education. Not that you are expected to be drudges or bookworms; the University is a good place to have a grand time. Our hope is that the fun will be secondary to your desire to do your best as a student, as a citizen of this new community, and as a leader of your fellows. Do You Have T.B.? Is your life worth ten bucks? Is your life worth ten ducks. The regular ten-dollar chest X-ray given by most laboratories is insurance against the undiscovered presence of tuberculosis symptoms. This service, offered right here on the campus in the basement of Watkins hospital, is given free of charge to all students who wish to take it both today and tomorrow. University students certainly should not have to be given a second invitation to take advantage of such an offer. The idea of having tuberculosis is not to be taken lightly. The peace of mind that comes with assurance of the absence of any symptoms would be cheap at the tendollar price: Here, it is free. Upperclassmen, you have until Tuesday afternoon to take the five minutes necessary to get that assurance. It's worth it. Democracy Begins on Campus.
